"Rumour has it"
Watched English movie "Rumour has it". This movie is directed by Rob Reiner and stars Jennifer Aniston as Sarah Huttinger, Kevin Costner as Bough Burroughs, Mark Ruffalo as Jeff and Shirley MacLain as Katharine.
Years ago a book was made into a movie about how a mother and daughter seduced the same guy and how the daughter married another boy. Jennifer comes home for wedding of her little sister. She determines that the book was inspired by her own family. She wants to meet Kevin to determine if he is her father but ends up doing something else.
Jennifer is all screwed up in the head and confused. Doesn't know what's right and what's not. Her actions lack logic. She goes from one trouble to another. Having two understanding males (father and fiance) saves her from self destruction.
The movie is odd. Story is strange. Handling is ok. Cinematography is good.
Why does Jennifer behave recklessly? Why didn't she simply ask her father before going on a witch hunt? How can one determine if Kevin speaks the truth? These and many such questions go unanswered.
In short the movie peaks curiosity but does not deliver on the promise.
Give it a miss.
